Did Somebody Say "Cake"?

I am so excited to be the guest designer on the Card Patterns challenge blog this week.


I have been wanting to use this cute Cocoa the Mouse image from Sweet 'n Sassy for some time and finally printed him out and colored him especially for this sketch.




Isn't he cute? I think he is peeking out looking for a piece of cake. Or maybe it's just that I want a piece of cake.... Hmmm... Cake for breakfast, now that's an idea.
.
Here is a look at this week's sketch. Be sure to link up your creation on the Card Patterns blog.





Thank you for looking! Have a terrific week end!

  • Image: Party Hat Cocoa from Sweet 'N Sassy stamps
